Divine Symbols & Sigils
Clergy, Temples and Worshippers
Many yuan-ti worship Zehir. In general, the serpentfolk who worship Zehir do so not out of devotion, but out of interest, and for some of them, their main ambition is to become equal or superior to their serpent deity. Only those yuan-ti of a small community in Siril, Southern Nova Terra and Pirate Island seem to be genuine devotees of the Cloaked Serpent.Tenets of Faith
- Keep your acts obfuscated and secret. The night is your greatest ally.
- Strike quickly and without reason. Blind the target with their own confusion.
- Kill slowly. Agonizingly. Or worse, make them enjoy it.
Physical Description
Identifying Characteristics
Many depictions of him can be found in his long forgotten and abandoned temples. He takes the form of a man's body with a half-dozen arms and a gargantuan fanged serpent head, with strands of thick, dark hair sprouting from his scaled body that swirl around to form layers of shadow, obscuring his entire form.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Dragonborn of the old Empire in Epeoris believed that Zehir had part in Asgorath's death during the battle against the primordial. Those who believed that myth, said that Zehir wanted to control the Dragon domain that was Asgorath's portfolio, and betrayed him to the primordial in order to obtain it. His plan failed when the gods Bahamut and Tiamat rose up from the dragon god's corpse, and claimed Asgorath's power over dragonkind - or atleast the the belief.
